Hi!
The outer module patch for .temp creation didn't solve the problem,
compilation stops with can't fine Modules.synver in /usr/src/linux-
2.6.6-rc1.

You need to do a ' make modules' first, otherwise the Modules.symvers file
will not be created.

after modules Loading comming message invalid driver ...

Hi!
Something is wrong with your solution, because I'm building a monolithic
kernel, so nvidia would be my only module. I have done make modules as
you've said (I think a simple make does that also, so it wouldn't be
required), and the Modules.synvers file doesn't exist. 2.6.5 works
normally, only using nvidia as a module. Note that module support is
compiled in the kernel.

The Module.symvers file is only generated if you have a minimum of one module
in the kernel. I'm in the process of fixing this.
Also the Modules.symvers file is not needed when CONFIG_MODVERSIONS are turned
off - so I will fix this also.
Thanks for the hint (monolithic kernel with module support enabled).
The workaround for now is just to declare a simple driver a module.
For example the dummy driver in the net section.
